Karn: Shreya. Humari Reyu.
(Shreya. My Reyu)

He said with a dreamy smile.

Prerna: Kitna pyaara naam hai. Aur batao naa unnke baare mai.
(Such a beautiful name. Tell me more about her Naa)

Karn: iss se pehle tum vishay badlo hum tumhari katha ke pashchyat batayenge.
( I will but not now and before you change the subject tell me your birth story)

Prerna: How mean!

Karn: Very mean! Ab batao.
(Now tell.)

Prerna: Accha theek hai.
(Ok fine)

Flashback

Tretayug

Devi parvati was missing her daughter a lot and was crying buckets of tears in front of the Kalpavrksh. It created a huge icicle and seeing it she got the idea of creating another daughter. She prayed to Mahadev seeking permission and he gave it and she built her out of it.

Back to present

Prerna: Aise hua Mera Janam
(This is how I was born.)

Karn: Dhanyawad Choti.
(Thanks)

Prerna: Koi baat nehi Bhaiya. Ab jaaiye jaake vishram kijiye.
( No problem bro. Now go and rest)

While Karn left and Prerna went back into flashback.

Flashback

After Mata Parvati puts life into the ice sculpture her 10 avatars appeared there and blessed her to be a part of them. Which meant after she completes her training she will gain the powers of all of them. While all of the God's were there and blessed her and Mainavati who was here to visit her daughter was in Aww seeing her granddaughter.

Mainavati: Kitni manmohak chhavi hai isski. Aashish hai mera ki jo bhi isska mukh dekhega iss se prem kar baithega.
(What an adorable image she has. It is my blessing that whoever sees her face will fall in love with her.)

While a leaf from the kalpvriksh falls on the little girls head making her glow for a few seconds.

Mainavati: Putri isska Naam kya rakhne wali ho?
(What are you going to name her dear?)

Parvati: Anika.

While time passed by Devi Parvati was busy with her duties of Jagat Mata and unintentionally neglected Anika. While Anika was the apple of her brother's eyes and  as she grew up she spent most of her time in her grandparents' place. She was a Xerox copy of her mother by looks but by behavior she was completely different. Soon as dwapar Yug approached and the time of the Pandavs came to be Devi Parvati seeing her daughter's future sent her to Kaliyug.

Going there she was adopted by a family who were the descendants of Karn. She introduced herself as Prerna. She got the love she never expected she'd get and joined the Army. She tried her best to keep herself away from all the guys and literally made most of them her brothers except one and he was the most beautiful mistake she has ever made. She fell in love with Alekh but never mentioned it and was brought back to her world when she was going to tell him. She cursed herself at the stupidity she was about to do and agreed to whatever her parents asked her and now here she is changing the fates of two people.

Back to Present

Soon Karn and Prerna finished their final test and they both went to Earth. They reached a couple of days before the kala pradarshan karne first went Home to his Radha Maa and took Prerna with him as well. He wasn't going to leave his sister alone.

Karn tip toes into the house and as soon as he steps in Radha's happy voice was heard.

Radha: Vasu!

Karn: Maa aap har Baar kaise Jaan leti hai.
(How do you always get to know mother)

He whined like a kid making Prerna giggled and Karn glared at her to which Reu made an Innocent face like she is the only innocent human alive.

Radha: Maa hu teri. Tujhe Teri aahat se pehchan leti hu.
(I'm your mother. I can know even with the slightest movement you make)

And she Hugged her son crying happy tears of his return while giving the duo some space Prerna Left to her destination which was where she will meet her terrible fate which was changed and only her parents knew it.

She went around traveling with a ghooghat and on the day of the kala pradarshan she stood on top of the arena walls. Everything went as it had before untill Dronacharya challenges all the archers of aryavart. This time Karn didn't react irrationally but was politely going to answer thanking his stars that Prerna wasn't there but an arrow came flying releasing Duryodhan from the himastra.

Dronacharya: Kon hai jiss ne Rajkumaron ke kala pradarshan mai vighna dalne ka dussahas kiya?
(Who is it that has the courage to interrupt the talent showcase of the Princes?)

Prerna: Aapne hi toh chunauti di thi Dronacharya! Ab jab humne chunauti swikar li toh aap krodhit ho rahe hai yeh kya Baat hui bhala.
(You only announced the challenge  Dronacharya and now you're getting mad when I accepted it.)

She said pouting changing her voice to a manly one and Karn looks at her in disbelief.

Karn: Yeh pagal ladki nehi sudharne wali.
(This mad girl won't change)

He Muttered and sat there watching the show.

Arjun: Kon ho tum jo kayar ke bhaati chhip ke baitha hai. Sahas hai toh humare samaksh aao!
(Who are you that you are hiding like a coward. Show yourself if you're brave enough)

He said looking around lost.

Prerna: suna tha shabd bhedi baan chalane mai kushal hai aap rajkumar parantu shayad hume hi bhram hua tha.
(I had heard that you can hit a target by sound only but looks like I assumed wrong Rajkumar Arjun)

She said jumping into the arena her posture and everything gave manly vibes and her face was covered.

Prerna: Iss se pehle aap hume apna chehara dikhane ko bole hum bata de ki hum nehi dikha sakte. Humne apni mata ko vachan diya hai. Aur humne apna rupvaan Chehra dikha diya toh kahi Rajkumar Nakul jal bhoon ke rakh naa ho jaaye.
(Before you say anything about revealing my face I'm not doing that because I have promised my mother and either way if I show my handsome face Prince Nakul might get jealous.)

Pandu could clearly see that this unknown opponent was joking around and chuckled. Dhritrashtra and Kauravas had a good laugh along with the citizens but the Pandavs weren't happy at all nor was Madri but after being explained that it was a joke she silently giggled. Prerna saw the trio and launched an arrow towards them which transformed into colorful Lotuses and the trio looked at the guy eagerly.

Prerna: Yeh aapke Jeyshth putra ke taraf se. Woh humare guru bhrata hai.
(This is from your eldest son. He is my guru bhrata)

Kunti found a flower near her with a message saying he is here and will meet her this evening. She was bursting with joy and happiness and everyone knew it from her face. And the drama continued with kripacharya asking her cast and her reply raised questions.

Prerna: Aachary aap uttar asli varna vyavastha ke anusar chahte hai yaa uss varna vyavastha ke anusar chahte hai jo aap logo ne banaya hai?
(Aacharya do you want the answer according to actual cast system of the cast system that you all have interpreted?)

Kripacharya: yuvan varna vyavastha keval ek hi hai.
(There is only one cast system young man)

Prerna: Nehi aacharya. Agar aisa hota toh ek balak ke shastr uthane se yaa shastr uccharan karne se usske praan sankat mai nehi aate. Woh toh bhala ho Maharaj Dhritrashtra aur unnke Anuj Maharaj Pandu ka ki unn dono balako ke praan bach gaye. Waise bhi aapse koi apeksha ki bhi nehi jaa sakti. Kyuki jinn logo ko ek navjat shishu adharmi lag sakta hai unnka shastro ka apurn gyaan hona koi badi baat nehi hai.
(No Aacharya. If that would have been the case then years ago a young boy wouldn't have been punished for lifting weapons nor would have another boy almost gotten a death sentence because he dared to say a few verses of a scripture. Thank the Lord that Maharaj Dhritrashtra and his younger brother Maharaj Pandu were there to save them. Well I really don't have any expectations from you guys. Especially when you thought that a new born baby is evil.)

She said rolling her eyes.

Bheem: Mohoday Aapse jitna pucha jaaye usska jawab dijiye. Aur iss adharmi duryodhan se...
(Answer what you are asked mister. And this evil Duryodhan...)

He was cut of by of Prerna's female voice leaving them shocked as she made it look like she was a different person. She was a master at illusions that even asurs and other magical beings also couldn't figure it out.

Prerna: Maun Vikodhar. Apne shabd Wapas lo iss se pehle ki Mahadev ka apmaan karne ka dand hum tumhe swayam de. Tum 5o bhale hi dev putr ho Parantu yeh mat bhulo ki jisse tum adharmi bol rahe ho woh Tumhare pita vayu dev ke aradhya Devon ke Dev Mahadev ke vardaan se prapt hue the mata Gandhari ko. Aur aaj tak dharm raj putr ke anuj hoke tumne konsa dharm ka karya kiya hai? Tumne jo jo kiya hai woh sab agar Kauravon ne bolna shuru kiya toh unnke saath Anay karne wale sab logo ke liye chullu bhar pani bhi bohot hoga doob marne ke liye. Aur jaha tak dwand ki baat hai toh tumhe toh yaha par koi bhi hara sakta hai.
(Quiet Vikodhar! Take your words back before I myself punish you for insulting Lord Shiva. Yes you 5 are demi Gods but do not forget that the ones you are calling evil are a boon to Mata Gandhari from the one even your Father Vayu Dev worships the ultimate God Mahadev. And being the younger brother of the son of Dharmraj what righteous deeds have you done. If the Kauravas start to list your misdeeds this full honesty then your blind supporters would have to die out of shame. And as long as the fuel is concerned than anyone from the audience can beat you.)

This enraged the Pandavs. Ever since they returned from the jungle with their parents the favouritism had gotten to their heads and they had a very big princely attitude which irked their father Pandu to some extent and Kunti tried to discipline them but that didn't work and they were easily influenced and manipulated by praises and this time even Madri was disappointed on her son's for she and Kunti were Very fond of the Kauravas who never treated them less than their mother. Kauravs were manipulated against the Pandavs but Gandhari made sure that her son's never disrespected any female of the household or the palace. And the caretakers of the Kauravs knew that very well while the elders mainly bheeshm, kripacharya, Vidhur, and dronacharya neglected them and them being the most influential with the citizens had created a bad image for the Kauravs.

Gandhar raj on the other hand saw this as a perfect opportunity to show the Pandavs their place. And proposed that a random citizen duels with Arjun and the lady herself has challenged Bheem so why not she tries to defeat Bheem and the Pandavs without any consultation agreed and Arjun seeing a bow in Karn's hand picked him and when asked which cast they both belong to Karn said Suta while Prerna said she was a mere Dasi putri when in reality she was the only heir of her Nana Nani's Kingdom. Bheem had first refused to the duel but one good blow at his male ego and he was standing in front of Prerna ready to fight. While Dhritrashtra dropped a bomb on the Pandavs supporters saying that whoever wins the Archery duel will be the next King of Anga desh and after thinking about it Pandu also agreed.

The Archery battle went on as it was supposed to with Karn's identity being revealed to the trio who happily announced Karn the winner much to Arjun's annoynce. While what shocked the viewers was how Bheem was knocked down.

(2:00 to 2:18 is the scene)

It made Karn chuckle and shake his head in disbelief. While she winked at Karn and he could clearly feel the cheeky smile of his guru behna. Karn was announced the king of Anga and Pandavs angrily left to their chambers with priyamvadha following them.

The Kauravas came and congratulated Karn on his victory. And Prerna left before the curious brothers try to see her face.

Later in the evening we can see three people going to the forest area near river ganga.
